#Grammy2013: Mrs Carter and Ms Knowles steal the show

When it comes to the Grammys it would appear that there is no contest, Queen B is exactly as her name suggests - The Queen. Hitting us with her best shot, she looks absolutely DIVINE in this black and white Osman onesie. Her sleek ponytail is on point and the dramatic red lip and amazing geometric accessories make this one of my favourite looks on the Grammy red carpet.

However, after watching Solange's video that was shot in Cape Town a few months back, I can't help but see that lil' sis is running in the same stride. Whilst the afro may not be everyone's cup of tea (after all, some prefer tequila) it does allow for Solange to show off her own unique style and make me take notice. With a fabulous green Ralph & Russo Couture frock, she rocks those tangerine Christian Louboutins and my heart flutters. Wow, wow, wow Solange, I'll tell you the truth you're not losing me anytime soon.

I. MUST. HAVE. THOSE. SHOES.

And then comes everybody's golden girl Taylor Swift in a most incredible J Mendel gown. Whilst @markstry may want to slap those bangs off her face (and I may share similar sentiments) I can't help but point out how absolutely magnificent that dress is. The detail in the back is my favourite part, showing off her slender and porcelain back - #amazeballs, me vant it.

And for once, much to my sheer surprise, Rihanna is mostly covered by a custom Alaia dress. 100 points RiRi, red is very much your colour. I'm not sure what happened to the hairstyle here though, it would appear to wish to magnify her forehead to a bizarre proportion to the rest of her. Or has RiRi become a lollipop head?

And having just attended (and filmed) the Chinese New Year celebration in Commissioner Street this past weekend, I can't help but notice Kat Denning's tribute to the year of the Water Snake. Whilst I love the darker red lip and the metallica, I still feel undecided about this Vivienne Westwood dress. Ms Denning is sporting a much slimmer figure but something is not sitting right with me. But then again, perhaps I'm just jealous of her buxom bosom.
